- Synopsis:
Adventurer and naturalist Steve Backshall has one mission; to travel the globe in search of 60 of the world's deadliest animals. Travelling across six continents, Steve searches through trees, deserts, swamps and seas to find them all...Steve heads to Indonesia in search of Komodo dragons, the world's largest venomous lizards. There he also demonstrates the incredible gliding technique of a tiny flying lizard and heads out on a hunt for the lethal green pit viper...Off the coast of South Africa, Steve and the crew attempt to get a glimpse of a great white shark in action. Back on land, Steve tracks down the large cape buffalo and is amused by the secretary bird's hunting technique... Steve's team looks at endangered predators who may well face extinction, possibly in our lifetime, like the magnificent tiger or the rhinoceros. He points out some of the threats, including absurdities like the unscientific belief in medicinal powers, besides habitat destruction, 'sports' hunting and even attempts to eradicate as pests. Luckily conservation efforts, while meeting obstacles, make some progress and there are examples of remarkably peaceful human-animal coexistence, like hyenas are welcome in Abessynia's ancient city Harrar... - Actors:
